Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This picture of Margaret Eliza Maltby was taken in Germany shortly after she received her PhD in Physics(1895) from Göttingen Univerisity.
Deutsch: Dieses Bild von Margaret Maltby wurde in Deutschland kurz, nachdem sie ihre Promotion in Physik (1895) bei der Univerisität Göttingen erhalten hatte, aufgenommen.
Date
Source The Internet. This picture was published in Miss Maltby's Curricula Vitae intermittently since 1895 and "a detail" was used by Göttingen University in publicizing the Margaret Maltby Mentoring Programm at the University of Gottingen Medical School. The same detail is used in Miss Malby's biography on line at the CWP Library at UCLA. The full picture was used by M. I. T. in a website "Technology Women" devoted to M.I.T. alumnae. It's been used everywhere without attribution to the original owner of the copy of the picture. It's used in the extensive on-line Zeitschrift memorial of her mentor Walther Hermann Nernst. The picture was not among Miss Maltby's effects when we, her family, inherited them. We, Miss Maltby's family and heirs, think the picture used again and again without attribution since 1895--that over 120 years--should be part of Wikimedia Commons. It seems almost certain to be in the public domain. It's the best picture of her at the peak of her career.

Licensing

[edit]
Public domain
The copyright situation of this work is theoretically uncertain, because in the country of origin copyright lasts 70 years after the death of the author, and the date of the author's death is unknown. However, the date of creation of the work was over 120 years ago, and it is thus a reasonable assumption that the copyright has expired (see here for the community discussion). Do not use this template if the date of death of the author is known.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

 Note that a few countries have copyright terms longer than 70 years: Mexico has 100 years, Jamaica has 95 years, Colombia has 80 years, and Guatemala and Samoa have 75 years. This image may not be in the public domain in these countries, which moreover do not implement the rule of the shorter term. Honduras has a general copyright term of 75 years, but it does implement the rule of the shorter term. Copyright may extend on works created by French who died for France in World War II (more information), Russians who served in the Eastern Front of World War II (known as the Great Patriotic War in Russia) and posthumously rehabilitated victims of Soviet repressions (more information).
